Brooklyn City Court by John R. Hastings as
counsel for Addie L. Hayden, pretty blonde

disarranged, and before She could reach the
shore the waves had nearly washed il awsv
Van Ripper went to her assistance and held the
suit together while she walked up the beach,
The couple went to the photographers fent
where the lady proposed to repair her costume
Upon entering the tent Miss HAYDEN alleges
that Van Ripper showed her several photographs
OF women in scant bathing dresses, and he per
suaded her to have another picture taken Ac-
cordingly, she removed her wet bathing suit
and was photographed She stipulated how
ever, that only one picture be taken and that il
be given to her and the negative destroyed.
AT the time this occurred Miss Hayden says
she was engaged to marry young man who
holds responsible position in a Brooklyn dry
goods house. Van Ripper she claims did not
destroy the negative OF the photograph taken in
the tent, and threatened to show it to the young
man to whom she was engaged unless she yield

more to do with the photographer and She al
leges that he sent a letter to the young man in
the dry goods store, together with the photo

ORIENTAL PHILOSOPHY.
A siamese Prince Contrasts Oriental and
Accidental Progress,

New YORK, August 1st.-f Special Prince
Devawougz Noropraker. brother of the King of
Siam, who arrived yesterday, was interviewed
He was asked his views as to how European
civilization compares with Siamese. and gave
the following characteristic Oriental answer
. think that it is only in the ruder external
adjuncts that European civilization has ad-
Yanced beyond that of the East marvel at
the wonderful mechanical Improvements of
Occidental life, at the endless contrivances to
enhance the pleasure of living. at the mul-
titude of conveniences and elaborate
luXurieS, but you have not whit more
of the essence of civilization than has existed
for centuries in the far east. More knowledge
there may be here, but no more wisdom In
that high civilization that makes purity in per-
sOnal living, rectitude of public life pursuit of
art tor arts sake, the understanding of mans
duty to his fellowmen and to his God, the study
of problems, the solution OF which tends to the
most good for the greatest number-in all these
things that make up our conception of civiliza-
western wo Id. think we can learn here how
of the west might learn a trihe from us IN the
cultivation of their minds Perhaps the ex-
change would not be more than even and
plainly neither of us would suffer by it. Many
problems are yet to be wrought out by this new
world. We, on the other hand, solved them
centuries ago, and live content with their solu-
ton. There is much that is good here-do not
understand me to deny that-much that will
be of profit to those countries of the east that
do OF close their eyes to the suggestions of the
west
The Prince will return to Asia by way of San
Francisco.

a TRIPLE TRAGEDY.
The Awful Crime of Brutal, Baffied
Husband in New Jersey.

CAMDEN (N. J.), August 1st-A more horrible
tragedy never occurred in this city than that
which took place in South Camden few min
utes before o'clock this evening, when William
Wiltshire, 50 years of age and keeper of an oys-
ter saloon, shot his wife, Ella, aged AZ. deliber-
ately murdered Justice of the Peace William S.
barr (colored), and then finished the work of
destruction by sending bullet through his
own brain, dying almost instantly. The trag-
edy occurred in Squire Darr's office. Wiltshire
had lived unhappily with his wife. The couple
had three children, aged six, twelve and fifteen
years. About two weeks ago Afrs. Will
shire. becoming tired of her husbands $
abuse, went TO Squire Darr's office and
had warrant issued charging him
with non-suppoTt and cruelty. He was arrested.
tried and ordered to pay six dollars per week
for the support of his wife and children. In
stead of giving his wife the amount ordered by
the Court he gave her two dollars. The woman
appealed for more, but her husband refused to
listen, the consequence being that the old fam
lily quarrel was renewed and continued till
death put an end to it. Previous to the tragedy
this evening Wiltshire entered the house,
grasped his wife by the throat and commenced
choking her. She succeeded in getting away
from him and ran to the Office of the unfortun-
ate Squire. She was telling him her trouble s
when her husband entered. Three minutes
later the wife, husband and Squire were dead.

MORMON TACTICS.
Comments on the Plot to Make Utah a
Democratic State.


Copyright 1887, ty he California Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA August lst.-TSpecial. THE
Press prints a two-column letter from John
Walker Jackson of Salt Lake City, giving
the history of the attempt of the Nor
mon Church to make Utah a State. The tone
is severe Quoting the acts of Apostle Richards
who opened the recent convention with prayer
Jackson says: John T. Caine, President of the
Convention and Delegate to Congress, it is said
brings from Washingtos assurances that are
communicated in very mysterious Mormon ways
to the Saints, that all viii. be right if the Con
yeption is careful. To this end. as President at
the Logan Conference, he sat on the stand
among the church diguitarles as a high priest,
and made there Il report OF his doings in Con
gress, and was at that time instructed by his
church to get up a meeting in the salt Lake
Tabernacle and pass a protest against the legis-
lGtiOn of Congress, which was in effect that
polygamy and bigamy were Incompatible with
republican form of government. The paper
was presented to Pres, dent Cleveland, and the
President at that time expressed wonder why
the people of Mormonism could not be like
other people. The document sand Among the
principles of our religion is the immediate reye-
lation from God. one OF the so revealed is ce
lestial or plural marriage, for which ostensibly
we are stgmatized and hated. This is vital
point in religion, the decision of the Courts
to the contrary notwithstanding. Jackson con-
cludes that when majority of the non-Mor-
mon population of Utah shall call a convention
and ask for admission to the Union, it will be
time 10 open the doors and invite the erring but
repentant sinner in, for she will then be clothed
in her right mind
The Press comments on this letter as follows {:
, The dispatch from Salt Lake City, published
to-day, is from n competent and critical observer
of the recent Utah state Convention, who has
studied on the spot the motives and influences
which lie behind the new movement. 1t is evil
dent that the church has received encourage
ment from some quarter to push the application
of the Territory for admission to the Union with
all zeal. Neither the Democrats nor the Repub-
| lcans of Utah who are outside the pale of the
Mormon Church had any part or lot in the late
Convention. Dakota must be let into the Union.
The demand of half million of people cannot
be ignored permanently, even by Democrats.
1t is necessary that Republican Dakota should
be Offset by Democratic Utah. and the Mormons
are given the cue to formally renounce their
error. to wit: Pclygnmy. ana get into the Union
on the strength of that repunciation, where they

ern California. incidentally the following par
agraphs appear in the letter for the benefit of
Eastern readers; so unprecedented has been
the rush to this section that it has been difficult
for persons to obtain the real truth. The papers
OF Northern California, angered at seeing the
tide OF prosperity sweeping this way, have per-
maps done little to present the country in its
true light, while few real estate men, with
their howls about paradise, have hurt the coun-
try. lnyidious comparisons between North and
south California are not just to either
section. They are entirely different in
every way. Northern California is devoted to
mining and vineyards, while Southern Califor-
MIA is an orange producing country, possessing
an entirely dieifrent climate. Southern Califor-
na-at least, San Gabriel Nalley-never is Wis
tied with the heat that l have experienced at
Sacramento and in the country between the
Sierra Nevada and Coast Range. Both sections
have their attractions and there should be no
rivalry. Yet, when the smallpox broke out in
Los Angeles last year, the San Francisco papers
did not seem to grieve, and now that this dIead
disease has appeared in that city there are not Il
few Los Angeles folks who rub their hands with
satisfaction"
